Whatcom County has been approved to move to Phase 2 of Gov. Inslee’s Safe Start plan to re-open the state’s economy amid the coronavirus pandemic. That means more amenities are becoming available at parks in the City of Bellingham, including sports courts and dog parks. The City’s Interim Parks & Recreation Director, Nicole Oliver, tells Tessa about what amenities are open and what their recommendations are for park visitors. She says it’s great news for citizens, but there are still some precautions to take.
